For ages now I've been trying to find a way to store my custom model Schabaks (of which there are over 70 now) where they don't take up loads of space but are easily accessible and well protected.
Recently as part of my model cataloging I went through all my Schabaks and put them each into their own little plastic bag (if they didn't have one already) and put them back into their box. The custom models obviously don't have boxes so though I could put them into bags they weren't well protected from bashing.
Finally I have found the answer. I was able to get two nice boxes from the local $2 shop and at the base of each I stuck in the plastic protection from models that were originally on the card backing boards rather than in boxes. The rest of the boxes are now taken up by tiers I made by cutting up Hector's old nappy boxes which has enabled me to have four levels in each box with a space for each model. On the top of each box I have stuck the logos of the airlines for the models inside.
How does everyone else store their unboxed schabaks? I have found that pre-made plastic boxes and shelving is rarely the correct sort of size to fit Schabaks well in a way that allows easy access to the models.
